Anders has a degree in journalism but is a beer-drinking teenager at heart. He loves intellectual argumentation – but also jokes far below the belt. There are very few one-liners and almost no play-on-words when Anders does his stand-up. Instead he focuses on intriguing stories and original observations with interesting point-of-views. It’s angry, honest and can get preachy. Anders has been performing since 2005 and In English since 2009. He’s has hosted several tv-shows from prime-time Bingo-game-shows to – most recently – scientific programs.

Ian Moore lives a double life. He is renowned and celebrated as a sharply dressed stand up comedian in the UK but the rest of the time he lives in rural France, VERY rural France. These two very different worlds collide to make an almost unique comedy set as Ian switches effortlessly between describing the difficulties of living in the modern world while also talking of his inability to cope with the ‘farm’ at home and in particular an inherited horse who hates him. It is this ability to marry the two things (at least on stage) that has lead to Ian performing in more than 30 countries around the world.
